Traveling with the aerobika with or without a nebulizer

I use it twice a day for 15 minutes. I boil water with a little dish soap and soak for 15 minutes. Then I dump boiled water and rinse with the remaining boiled water, and let air dry.

Thanks to everyone who replied. This newbie is very grateful to my more experienced sisters and brothers. I use aerobika and nebulizer with saline once a day. I am supposed to use it twice a day but my pulmonologist said doing it twice instead of once is only "marginally helpful". I am not recommending that; I just use that as an excuse when I don't do it the second time. That was a great tip to boil water instead of using distilled. I have a follow-up question to that (sorry if silly): How long does it take for the boiled water to cool before you can use it to clean or rinse?
Again many thanks,
Terry

I just saw that lindam 272 just gave the link to ordering it from Amazon. It is a mask and I find it to be quite comfortable. I just used it to fly to Atlanta. I turned to my fellow traveler lucky enough to be sitting next to someone who looked a little like a Martian and explained that I was not contagious and that my lungs were scarred and I had to guard against being infected by anyone on aircraft who was sick. She was very understanding. So not only did my ears stick out but I put on my reading glasses and that made me look like even more of an alien ... but a friendly and funny looking one. Terry

Do you recommend any particular baby bottle sterilizer to use with the nebulizer and mouthpiece daily and the aerobika unit itself weekly? Very appreciative for such specific and helpful advice. Thank you.

Terry, Here is the sterilizer that I use daily: Philips AVENT Microwave Steam Sterilizer https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007VBXKG2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
These are the sterilizing bags that I use when I travel: Philips Avent Microwave Steam Sterilizer Bags (pack Of 5)

Oh my gosh, Terry! You cracked me up! I laughed out loud when I read your post. I read some of the reviews before I ordered the mask and one lady said that she cut the elastic and put in another piece of elastic behind the ears so that they wouldn't stick out like Dumbo ears. Sounds like it makes sense to put a narrower strip of elastic where it falls behind the ears but I haven't attempted that yet. Linda

Just to make certain: do you sterilize both the aerobika and nebulizer in the AVENT steam sterilizer? Does everything fit in the one that is the size for 4 bottles or did you have to get the larger sterilizer offered, fitting 6 bottles? Last question (promise-well, I take that back): if you use aerobika and nebulizer twice a day, do you sterilize after each usage or just after the second?
Could ask what is the meaning of life but have asked you enough questions for today!
Thank you very for your much needed assistance and help,
Terry

Terry, I do sterilize both the aerobika and the nebulizer in the bottle sterilizer. I do the nebulizer pieces after each use. I do the mouthpiece of the aerobika each time but the rest of it only once a week. They all fit in the 4 bottle sterilizer nicely. Will pass along the meaning of life once I have that nailed down! Blessings, Linda

Linda: What great tips! Thank you. So we disinfect/sterilize daily and the only special weekly chore would be when we put the body of the aerobika in the sterilizer. That really simplifies matters for me. No more boiling water for the aerobika or having to make some vinegar/water concoction to disinfect the nebulizer on a weekly basis. Love it! Maybe the meaning of life is to reach out and ask for help and to be ready to reciprocate in turn ... or at least one part of the meaning. Many thanks. Blessings back, Terry
